Infrastructure Engineer

In today’s dynamic worksites, seamless collaboration between people and machines is essential. FORT’s platform ensures safe, secure, and dynamic control that surpasses legacy systems and next-generation AI capabilities.

While autonomous machines offer significant advantages, they also introduce new safety challenges. FORT addresses these concerns by providing solutions such as the Wireless E-Stop, which allows operators to instantly stop any machine from a safe distance, enhancing safety during emergencies.

Additionally, FORT’s Safe Remote Control enables operators to manage heavy machinery remotely, reducing the risk of accidents and improving visibility.

By ensuring communications integrity across any network, FORT empowers customers to protect their most valuable assets-people, data, and machines-ensuring they remain safe and secure., * Design and scale Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) benches for system and device-level validation
